Icon3 car wont start...starter won't crank engine

sooo ok my car is auto d15


the other day i was out and made 2 stops and after the 2nd time i tried to start my car it wouldnt start... waited a few minutes and messed with the shifter and then it finally started...

then the same night my car started overheating and it turned out i had the wrong fuse and it melted my fan wires..fixed that.

then yesterday i tried starting my car it wouldnt start...tried waiting and nothing... then started messing with wires under my dash, apparntly there was an alarm that wasnt un-installed right got rid of those wires..still nothing.

idk so i replaced the starter...nothing. checked the main relay on another car and it worked fine..all i know is that the starter is getting volts and its still not working.. got annoyed and was about to leave and it almost started...but didnt work.

it doesnt click either or turn and tried another neutral switch..

any ideas???? or anyone that knows how to do wiring i could really use ur help!

Have the starter tested and check the transmission ground wire to see if the connection is loose or corroded.
